For the first time in quite a while, a North London derby is taking place without Harry Kane being a part of it.
The England skipper left Tottenham Hotspur this summer to move to German giants Bayern Munich, with his contract at Spurs set to run out in fewer than 12 months and no indication he would pen fresh terms.
Kane left Spurs as the club's all-time record goalscorer netting 280 strikes in 435 games, with the North London side receiving an initial reported €100million (£86million) for their prized asset.
The North London derby is taking place this afternoon at the Emirates Stadium in the first game of the fixture without Kane being involved.

And Gunners fans have made their thoughts on the matter and Kane's departure from their fierce rivals clear with a brutal chant.
The home faithful have been heard singing to the travelling Spurs support: "Harry Kane, he left 'cos you're s**t."
Despite Kane's loyalty over the years, he was unable to win silverware with his boyhood club, with their last trophy to date being the League Cup back in 2008.
The Gunners finished last season as runners-up to Manchester City in the Premier League, with Spurs ending the campaign in eighth place with no European football on offer this season.
On the pitch, a pulsating encounter has unfolded in North London. A Cristian Romero own goal gave the Gunners a first half lead before Son Heung-min equalised before half-time.
Romero's handball gave Arsenal a penalty after the break which Bukayo Saka duly converted, before Son equalised moments later during a Spurs counter-attack after being played in by James Maddison.
